    Although Qin Lie was brave and good at fighting, he didn't dare to act rashly in the face of the countless sharp spears pressing against his body.

    Because if he had the slightest movement, these spears could easily pierce countless blood holes all over his body.

    "Hey, wasn't it amazing just now?"

    Crazy Cheng limped over with his saber in his hand, looked at Qin Lie who was full of resignation and said in a strange way.

    "You are despicable and shameless, what kind of heroes are you to use these indecent means, you have the ability to fight me one-on-one!"

    Qin Lie insisted on being brave, and never put anyone in his eyes, but he didn't expect to be capsized in the gutter now, looking at the madman Cheng who was almost killed by him just now, he couldn't help but yelled loudly.

    "Want to single out?"

    Crazy Cheng said sarcastically: "You think children are playing house, it's a war¡ª"

    "Tie it up and take it away!"

    Seeing many militia soldiers around rushing towards this side, Crazy Cheng didn't want to waste his time, and waved his hand and ordered.

    Several Qinghe army brothers who were like wolves and tigers rushed forward, and tied Qin Lie who was struggling and cursing tightly with the ropes he had prepared.

    "Save Lord General!"

    "Don't let the thieves run rampant!"

    Qin Lie is a fierce general in the civilian army. He has always been brave and invincible on the battlefield. If anyone helps him, he thinks it is an insult to him.

    Because he is brave and invincible, he usually doesn't even bring a personal guard with him.

    Now after the Qinghe Army captured him alive, some militia soldiers who were fighting discovered the situation, shouted hastily, and tried to rush over to save him.

    These militia soldiers are loyal, but unfortunately, the Qinghe army brothers around them are not vegetarian either.

    Before the militia soldiers rushed forward, a large number of Qinghe soldiers blocked them, and it was another bloody fight.

    When Crazy Cheng walked back with Qin Lie, who was captured alive, the eight thousand militia troops also rushed up from a distance.

    "Block shooting!"

    Seeing the militia soldiers rushing towards the mountain pass to kill the battle group in the distance, Zhou Ba, the head of the banner commanding the mountain pass, ordered the archers to stop them.

    The 4,000 archers are divided into four echelons. Melee combat is not their forte, but no one can match them when playing hard bows.

    "The thousandth team!"

    "Goal, one hundred and fifty steps!"

    "put!"

    "Om¡ª¡ª"

    Amidst the vibrato of a bowstring, sharp arrows whizzed out like raindrops, shooting towards the militiamen who rushed forward with torches.

    The militia soldiers holding torches were living targets. Countless arrows passed over the two sides in the melee and landed directly on the militia troops who came up for reinforcements.

    "Puff puff!"

    Amidst the dull sound of arrows piercing into the flesh, the soldiers of the militia were like overripe wheat, and suddenly fell in a mess.

    The coverage of this round of arrows directly harvested the militia soldiers in a small area, forming a vacuum area.

    The militia soldiers at the back saw the soldiers in front lying in a pool of blood in disarray. Many of them had arrows stuck in their bodies, like hedgehogs.

    "Press it up!"

    "Quick, go!"

    When the officers saw the soldiers' footsteps stagnate, they roared loudly and urged them on.

    "Kill!"

    The militia soldiers roared in unison as if to cheer themselves up, and charged towards the mountain pass where the melee was fought again.

    "The 2000th team!"

    "put!"

    "The 3,000th team!"

    "put!"

    Behind the mountain pass, the hoarse voice of a deputy banner battalion commander continued to sound, and wave after wave of arrows were thrown towards the militia soldiers.

    These arrows crossed the two sides of the melee, and launched a cut-off attack on the reinforcements of the militia troops.

    "Puff!"

    "ah!"

    Although these militia soldiers are very close to the mountain pass where the melee was fought, this distance is as insurmountable as a natural moat.

    Under the urging of the officers, the soldiers of the militia rushed forward one after another, but they often let the arrows penetrate their bodies as soon as they rushed out more than ten steps.

    The arrows seemed to be flowing continuously, nailing a militia soldier to death on the hillside.

    &nbspThe corpses of civilian army soldiers were piled up layer by layer, and the gurgling blood flowed out from the wound, soaking the soil, and quickly turned into blood mud under the trample of countless soldiers.

    Seeing the soldiers howling and falling down, the militia officer's eyes were red, and he was still roaring at the top of his lungs, kicking and beating the soldiers to charge.

    But facing that section of death zone, facing the hillside covered with corpses, the militia soldiers behind were full of fear, no matter how the officers cursed and kicked them, they just hesitated to move forward.

    Some of these 8,000 militia soldiers were reorganized from the captive rebel army, and some were recruited private soldiers from small families.

    Although their fighting power is not bad, they are much weaker in fighting will than the two thousand direct line elite led by Qin Lie.

    More than 8,000 militia soldiers abruptly let the arrows of 4,000 archers block their way, so that the militia assault troops fighting at the mountain pass had no backup.

    In particular, the general Qin Lie was captured alive by Cheng Fengzi, which caused the elite militiamen fighting in the mountain pass to lose their backbone and fell into a situation where they were fighting among themselves.

    It was the five thousand brothers from the Fourth Banner Battalion of the First Banner Regiment of the Qinghe Army who fought with the militia at the mountain pass. Although half of them were recruits, they overwhelmed the defense line at the beginning.

    However, as the battle continued, the problem of insufficient strength of the elite civilian army became apparent.

    Because the elite of the two thousand militiamen also lost more than a thousand people under the arrows, only one thousand soldiers were able to rush forward to fight.

    Now their 1,000 soldiers are fighting with 5,000 brothers from the Fourth Banner Battalion. Although they are elite veterans, they are hard to beat with two fists.

    Especially when they couldn't get follow-up support, with the fall of a militia soldier, they soon fell into a bitter battle.

    "Withdraw!"

    Some civilian army generals who saw the situation was not good, felt that if the fight continued like this, the whole army would have to be wiped out, and ordered to retreat.

    But now they have been strangled with the Fourth Banner Battalion of the Qinghe Army. With the troops at a disadvantage, it is not easy to disengage and withdraw easily.

    As soon as many militia soldiers turned around, they were stabbed to the ground by the spears behind them and turned into corpses.

    These bloody militia soldiers broke through desperately like trapped beasts.

    A battalion general led more than 300 soldiers covered in blood abruptly, and retreated towards the mountain road in a panic.

    "Shoot 'em!"

    Zhou Ba, who was sitting at the mountain pass, saw the more than 300 militia soldiers desperately breaking through, and gave orders coldly.

    "put!"

    With a cold shout, dense arrows shot towards the more than 300 militia soldiers who had broken through.

    In the blink of an eye, more than 300 protruding militia soldiers fell into a pool of blood.

    "Let's go, let's go!"

    Those militia soldiers who had been unable to reach the mountain pass because of the arrows blocking them saw that the battle at the mountain pass was over.

    The hundreds of people who protruded were all shot and killed under their noses. They didn't dare to stay for a long time, and turned their heads and fled one after another.

    The militia soldiers who suffered heavy losses scrambled to turn around and flee. In the dark, many people tripped and fell to the ground, and then countless feet stepped on it, trampling to death alive.

    "Master Banner Commander, Sir Banner Battalion Commander, do you want to pursue?"

    Seeing the militia soldiers in the distance turn around and flee, the battalion commander of the Fourth Banner sent someone to ask Zhou Ba for instructions.

    "Brothers are also tired, stop chasing."

    Looking at the deep darkness in the distance, Zhou Ba did not risky order to pursue, but ordered the troops to shrink their defenses, without even cleaning the battlefield.

    After dawn, the Qinghe army was able to get a glimpse of the whole battlefield. From the mountain pass to the south and on the gentle slope, green smoke curled up, and the broken flags burned and made big holes. The corpses were piled up layer by layer.  On the mountain road in the distance.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
